Why Everyone Needs An Adventure Partner
Ashley Hontz

Anyone can go on an adventure, but it is the person that you go on this adventure with that makes it worthwhile. Here is why everyone needs an adventure partner in their life.

They are your motivation.

Let's be honest -- you are not going to get up and do something crazy unless someone is there to do it with you. It's a fact. I mean, who else is going to help you make a decision on where to go?

Did your adventure actually happen if no one else was there to experience it?

You need someone to be able to look back at what you did and say, "What in the world were we thinking?" If something crazy happens, you need someone to be able to back you up when people question your sanity.

They are your road trip partner.

Summer time is meant for road trips and without an adventure partner there can be no road trip. You can't just jam out in the car by yourself. You need another person to look crazy with you.

They will support all of your crazy ideas.

No adventure idea is a bad idea. You need someone who understand this. If you don't have someone to back you up right away, then you might realize how crazy you actually are and back out.

They will push you to move out of your comfort zone.

Trust me, this is the best part. I would never have seen all of the things that I have if it were not for my adventure partner.

They make everything an adventure.

Everything you do together is automatically an adventure, because you are doing it with them. Nothing is ever dull when you are with them.

Adventure partners are hard to find, but once you find them, never let them go. They will be a part of the best memories and laughs of your life. So this one is for you adventure partners across the world. Stay awesome.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

Students walking on a sunny college campus with trees and buildings.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
